Pay As You Sail with PAYS
The easy way to purchase ENCs on board ships.
PAYS - Pay As You Sail
Pay As You Sail is exactly that - it allows you to use charts free of charge for planning and pay for the charts when your vessel enters the cell coverage area. If you look at a chart and do not use it in sailing, you are not charged for it. Charts used to navigate are automatically charged for, saving time purchasing them. PAYS keeps you compliant in last minute or emergency route changes - the system automatically purchases the permits used - helping ship operators in managing navigation expenses.

How does PAYS work?
It works by supplying your vessel with the permits required to unlock all of the PAYS charts. Satellite tracking reports the location of the vessel and PAYS uses this to automatically charge the vessel for the cells it has sailed through. Any existing ECDIS on the vessel can continue to be used as normal; and it will now have access to the full PAYS portfolio of charts.
Try it before you buy it
PAYS gives you offline digital access to the World-wide portfolio of AVCS charts, to plan your route at any time. Access the charts for free to plan routes and then pay for the charts used for navigation, not the entire chart portfolio. You will not be charged for charts that are viewed and not used in navigation. There is an annual surcharge to activate and use the PAYS service.
